Bits and Pieces

As many of you will know Smudge plays a very important role in our lives. She hates when other things take priority over her. How do we prioritise things in our lives I wonder? It is difficult to have a balance especially in the world we live in that strives for material things, greater promotion, more money, bigger cars and bigger houses.

Most of us if asked the question do you worship an idol would answer without having to dwell on it- NO.However idols are not just wooden or bronze statues, they are simply anything we put into our lives before God.

Exodus 201 Then Godspokeallthesewords, saying, 2 "I am the LORD your God, whobrought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3 "You shall havenoothergodsbefore Me. 4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol, or anylikeness of what is in heavenabove or on the earthbeneath or in the waterunder the earth. 5 "You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealousGod, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showinglovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
